Global Education Tuition & Aid
Students are charged tuition and program fees based on the category in which a program falls, as outlined below. Depending on the program, students are either billed Gordon’s standard charges and may retain their financial aid, or they are billed the amount charged to Gordon by the program provider and do not retain Gordon institutional aid. A $150 administrative fee applies in the latter case.
In addition to tuition and program charges, students will be billed a $75 pre-departure seminar fee and a monthly health and travel insurance fee (currently $42 per month for 2026).
Please refer to individual program pages for additional expenses, which may include food, books, visa fees, transportation, etc. Students are encouraged to research these expenses in advance to determine the total cost of participation.

To find out the exact cost, contact the Global Education Office or the program provider. Program costs are often lower than Gordon's cost of attendance, which can compensate some for the change in financial aid.
